... live free!

"... and you were in the woods like that so late?

Sure, you might wonder why it would be if you came out of the woods so late. Not to mention I'm just a kid.

"That tried to get in through the west gate before sundown, but the gate was closed and I couldn't get in... So I kind of went around to the other gate."

"Were the gates closed before sundown?

Mr. Helga was leaning his neck for some reason when he heard the gate was closed before sundown.

"Yes, the man at the gate told me I couldn't."

"... is that true?

When I nodded at the question, the captain looked a little difficult and thought of something. Maybe they don't think I lied or something? But it's true. I waited for Mr. Helga to tell me something while I thought. Then I lost it so much that I decided something. I came to look at it.

"I don't know the details, so let's just find out"

I nodded a little relieved when I heard the words. I don't know what kind of decision you have, so if Mr. Helga wants me to look into it, I should leave it to you, okay? Nevertheless, I was curious when the gate would be tightened, so I decided to ask.

"And have you decided when the gate will be tightened?

When I heard that, the soldiers around me turned to me with a frightened look. Is something wrong? and inside, it makes me a little nervous.

"The gate closes only after sundown. So what the lady just told you is that there must be some form of punishment if it is discovered because you have not kept that decision... Besides, I can't say much because it's a problem on that side... Well, more than that, after the gate closes, even if the gate is closed, we can get into the city for once, right?

"Huh? Is that true?

I was surprised to hear you could get inside the city even if the gate was closed. Normally when the gate closes, I didn't think I could go into the city...

"That's right. If you present something that identifies you, you should put it in roughly. Unless there's more to it, huh?

"About the rest of it?

"Right.... It could happen if you were in a state like that of a lady earlier"

Earlier self. Minutes...... if you don't know who it is and come bloody..., yeah. I might not be able to get in because it's so suspicious.

"Sure..."

"Well, that's what I mean. So, you're going into the city?

"Oh, please"

That's what I said and gave him my guild card.

"Lady, you're in the Adventurer's Guild."

"Yes."

"Eight......!? G-Rank!"

Mr. Helga was surprised to see the rank of my guild card. Well, according to the receptionist story, isn't it unnatural to be surprised that an adventurer who passes under the age of ten because he said very few? I spoke to Mr. Helga with that in mind.

"What's wrong?

"No, it's nothing. I'm just a little surprised. I'm going inside the city, so follow me."

When Mr. Helga says so, he walks out, so he follows. Then I went inside the stuffing and then went elsewhere. And the sight that was spreading ahead was in a city that looked familiar.

I see. I thought this was what it meant to let you in if you didn't even have a problem with your identity because the stuffing is connected to the city.

"Bye, lady, be careful"

"Thank you"

That's what I said. I broke up with the captain and headed to the inn.
